I. Introduction
This short extract gives you a taste of your personal "Career and Vocation" horoscope by Liz
Greene. The small samples taken from various chapters convey an impression of the complete
vocation horoscope (18-25 pages) which can be
ordered as an E-Horoscope or a bound book in the AstroShop.
When we are children, people say to us, "What do you want to be when you grow up?" At that age, we
usually have dreams. When we are children, we are still capable of hearing the voice of the soul.
As we grow older, the questions change. There is no longer time for dreaming; we must now "face
reality" and think about how to survive in the big, bad old world.
This astrological report is about your vocation. It is meant to help you get a sense of what you
might be good at and what might be good for you, so that your working life has a meaning as well
as a pay cheque.
II. How You See the World
This chapter briefly describes your personal perspective on life and explains how you can best
express this in your career.
III. Your aptitudes and strengths
This chapter, which contains 8-10 pages, is one of the most comprehensive sections in the "Career
and Vocation" horoscope. Here is a short selection of three samples from the numerous aptitudes
described in the complete report.
An honest and realistic understanding of your fundamental strengths can help you to orientate
yourself in the world and put your energy into areas where you can hope to shine and achieve at
least many of your most cherished goals.
[..] You could be happy in the arts or on
the "fringe" of many professions, provided you know that the people you work with and for have
their feet firmly on the ground. You do not like experimenting for experimentation's sake, and you
are not easily seduced by flowery promises [...]
[..] If you wish to shift your present work, you need to sit down and
plan for the future, leaving little to chance and making a list of what additional training or
experience you might need. Planning in this way gives you a feeling of security, for you do not
like wandering [...]
[..] In
your working life it could be a great advantage, for you are not frightened of striking out on
your own and remaining loyal to your own values even if you do not have a crowd to offer you
support. You might work well in professions where self-possession and a contained [...]
IV. Know Your Limits
This chapter describes your personal limitations and suggests how you can deal with these in your
professional life. In the complete horoscope, this chapter is about 5-7 pages in length.

Recognising your innate limitations can help you to focus your energy in the right direction and
get the maximum fulfilment from your work.
[..] It can also frustrate you if you do not feel you have any chance to
develop potentials which you might sense within yourself. If you are too inclined to judge others
by your own more conservative standards, this could interfere with your working relationships and
make it [...]
[..] Ultimately, the extremely high standards you set for yourself reflect your deepest values, and it
is important for you to recognise and uphold these values in your working life. However, you also
need to be more compassionate toward yourself and your human limits; for no [...]
V. Working with Others
The two final chapters of "Career and Vocation" deal with the way you work together with your
colleagues in your everyday working life, and what success means to you personally.
One of the most important factors to consider in terms of your direction in life is how you work
with others. Everyone has his or her own style of relating in the working environment; everyone
has different needs and requirements.
VI. What Success Really Means to You
When people speak of "success", they generally mean a position of importance in the world's eyes,
or a job that yields lots of money and all the material pleasures and comforts that implies. But
success, in terms of the deeper issue of vocation, is a highly individual thing that means
different things to different people.
